Just for fun I backed the Satellite Reign project at http://kickstarter.com. It’s a Syndicate and Syndicate Wars inspired remake. That’s the original, from like the Amiga. Please have a look at their project at Kickstarter and add some funding if you like it… 🙂

A short while ago we were running into an interesting animation glitch. The actual solution is quite simple.

Here’s what the glitch was about. A table view could be toggled into an edit mode. On performing this toggle a label would be animated out of the view and hidden. The strange thing was, that this label was resizing it’s font size right the second before the actual animation started.

6 months ago i started at Xebia. It’s been a fun ride so far. Started working on a super cool mobile project with a user base soon to pass a million users.

Right now I’m enjoying a few weeks off. And I’m looking at where I’m at now and where I would like to go. Things have been very interesting the last 6 months.

And the most important news is, I’ll working on my Open University education again. For my work I get to stay in hotels a lot and to keep my mind occupied on those evenings I think a few self study courses will do nicely.

Two weeks ago I started at my new employer. Xebia. I’ve been busy, but soon, I will be super busy. If all goes well I’ll be doing some very cool work in the near future. For now, I’m helping out colleagues where I can. Trying to make a name for myself and stake my claim within the Mobile group of Xebia.

Suffice to say, let’s make things ripple this year. 🙂 I took the plunge and sofar, the water has been very comfy.

Also, Happy valentine’s day to everyone and one person in particular. 🙂
